We are trying to validate the Sorting on Grid Columns For this we are fetching the data of the column from DOM using web scraping   Example:   Column1: "Apple", "Apple1", "Apple0", "Apple_"   on sorting the Grid (say in Descending Order) We get: Column1: "Apple1", "Apple0", "Apple_", "Apple"   Which tells us that the order of preference when sorting is: '1' > '0' > '_' > ''   But the ASCII values are: Character        -        ASCII Value 1                -         49 0                -         48 _     

Hello, we are experiencing some very radical spikes and increases in the session count of a report that we have in Appian. In the graph you can see how the level of logged in users automatically increased in a matter of a few minutes to illogical levels and we believe that this may be slowing down the general environment. We have not detected a process, an Appian object that jumps us that could be the cause of said increase.

Is there any way to still keep the legend in a graph but remove the click on legend filter functionality? In this case I am referring to the Points legend; this is a sample graph I am playing around with in but I do not want the user to filter on legend in this case.

Yesterday afternoon, the Add New record action on 3 different interfaces stopped working and the process models show the same following error: The only change that was made to those 3 interfaces was the following highlighted section was added into the expression mode: *Note - after this change was made to the example above I was able to create a new record in that table with no issue, then proceeded to make the change to the other 2 now having issue. Also, we tried putting it back the way it was and it still gave the error so we are stumped as to what is causing this issue now.

I tried adding a YouTube video to an interface but it ends up blank. a!videoField( videos: { a!webVideo( source: document(21953,"url") ) } ) I tried using this code and for source I tried replacing it with the YouTube video url which didn't work also. Do I need the mp4 of the video in documents or are YouTube videos not compatible?

Hell Dears, I am working on a project that contains multiple tables, what I noticed while I am working on a table is that the column width is set based on the column name width. In other words, if I have a long name of a column header this column width is larger than the column that has a short name. I am looking for a way to set a column width based on the column values rather than the column name. Would you please help me with this issue? Thank you in advance

Hello, I have a wizard interface set up where each section of the wizard calls an interface rather than having all of the code in the same object. The interface object I call has a number of text fields that run an email notification process. The text fields are all working properly and all the input values are saved in rule inputs. (When I type my name in, and then move to the next field, the value I typed persists and does not revert back to the placeholder value). However, when I call this interface in my wizard, the value does not persist and reverts back to the placeholder value. What am I missing? Thank you, Jason Bongiovanni

I have an editable grid where user can add new records. UI is build on New Record Syncs. When i click "Add something" link, getting below error.  this issue is happening when the grid/whole interface is empty. For example, if i have records in another sections, then it is working fine. Everytime we click on add, i am saving specific data to columns. Could not figure it out what this error is saying. Attached code of that UI, any help appreciated. a!localVariables( local!refTickerData: rule!SRT_QRY_tickerReferenceRecordType(pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(1, 5000)), local!labels: { "Equity", "Fixed-Income", "Other", "Review Required" }, local!filterSelected: if( ri!filterSelected = "1 ADJUSTED", 12, ri!filterSelected = "2 ADJUSTED", 13, ri!filterSelected = "3 ADJUSTED", 14, {} ), local!data: ri!portfolioData, local!adjustmentOne: if( local!filterSelected = 12, if( a!isNullOrEmpty( index(

Hi All, I wanted to transfer the data from cdt to Excel, but earlier the Export cdt to excel smart service was thr but recently it is showing as deprecated, how to handle this now? Thanks in Advance

Hello Team, Let's imagine that I have the following case: two users open the same interface (summary view page of a record) and there is a section with multiple actions (cards with startProcessLink to initiate different actions); First user trigger one of these actions. A process model is initiated (everything chained) and the process is completed. Since this is chained, after the completion a LV is refreshed (this LV will be used on a condition to enable/disable the visibility of the button that I just clicked on) and the button is disabled for this user; Second user with the same interface open still can see the button. Do you know how to prevent that the button is visible for the second user? I was expecting that after the first user completes the action, both sessions will be refreshed, however only the sessions for the user that performed the action is being refreshed. I understand that I can create a condition on the PM, and as soon as the user click on the button (the

Dear Practitioner's, I have a process model with a Start Event Timer configured to run periodically. The scheduler must be enabled/disabled based on a feature flag which is nothing but an entry in a DB table that returns a true/false (via a rule XYZ_isFeatureEnabled(name: "<featureName>") ). I tried to add a timer condition with expression in the Start Event but it does not fetch the latest value from this table and requires the process model to be re-published to get the latest value from DB. Is this a standard behaviour when it comes to Start Event Timer? I had to fall back to the OG method of adding a XOR gate after the start event to check if the feature is enabled/disabled and simply route to an End Event when it's not enabled. This works but I was trying to avoid triggering an instance itself. Any thoughts?

I need to create a user interface. The interface consists of multiple sections, each section will have it's dedicated submit buttons. Each section will have it's own dedicated required fields (using required parameter of field) and fields validations. Now, when I use buttons in each section with validate as true, it checks for the required validity of every section, though that button is not dedicated to those other sections. How can I make it to check only the requiredness and validation of the section which it is dedicated to. In the attached code, when I click "Submit as Future Hire" or "Onboard Employee Now", besides checking the validation or requiredness of the section fields in which it is placed, it is checking for other section as well. Validation groups are also not working properly, when I click "Onboard Employee Now" in first section, it checks for validation of fields "Phone Number" and "Start Date" for first sectio

Hello,  I had added a CALL INTEGRATION smart service in my process model and couldn't modify its properties as shown in the picture, while i open it from another user with the same security rules and it works properly. Note that my user is system administrator and included in the process model creators group. I also checked the process folder's security and everything seems fine. Any Advice?

I am trying to setup a connected system to an API provided by another client.  They're using OAuth 2.0, but they're expecting the client_id and client_secret in a JSON format, rather than the x-www-form-urlencoded which Appian is sending.  Is there a way to change this configuration somewhere?

Hi, I am making an Asset Management application. I have a functionality which allows me to create new assets with information such as asset name and asset Id. There is also an ability to add images of the asset in the interface where I have used the a!fileuploadfield which points to a constant which is a folder that stores the images. Here is the code for the same. /*a!fileUploadField(*/ /*label: "Asset Image",*/ /*labelPosition: "ABOVE",*/ /*target: cons!G1_folderAssetImages,*/ /*value: ri!G1_Assets.imageId,*/ /*saveInto: ri!G1_Assets.imageId,*/ /*required: true,*/ /*validations: {}*/ /*),*/ I want to make a summary view (Interface) which shows all the information about the asset along with its image. But as of now I am just able to show the image id. Is there any way I can dsiaplay the image in this new interface?
